Here are the Fusion Tables we will be creating in this session - if you get lost while building your own please feel free to go to these Fusion Tables to see what we are doing
BIA Tribal Contacts Fusion Table
Merged State Boundaries and Census Data

This is the Google Spreadsheet you are importing into your Fusion Table
Copy and paste this link into your Fusion Table import dialog box

With a little bit of editing you can use your Fusion Table to quickly create mailing labels
